Lo ~~ He said he is concerned about the potential for a negative impact on the lake quality from the sew- age lagoon discharge, and likewise the number of residential develop- ments on septic systems. As for future development in Ward 3, he said he would be op- posed to opening up the interior of the Island for large scale subdi- visions. He believes municipal recrea- tion facilities in the Township need to be improved, but any new facilities should serve a large number of people, not small spe- cial interest groups. Mr. Goreksi has lived all his life in the Township. He has been active in the Kinsmen Club, in- cluding a term as President, and is currently a director with the Scu- gog Chamber of Commerce. A resident of Concession 10, he works with the family-owned marina and campsite on the west shore of Scugog Island. He and his wife Lori have two young children, ageg three and six. He told the Star that during the election campaign he plans to do a lot of door-knocking and lis- tening to the concerns of the resi- dents of Scugog Island. Parents needed If there is anyone in Port Per- ry interested in becoming actively involved with the Block Parent program, Janet Banting wants to hear from you. Mrs. Banting is the chairper- son of Block Parents in Green- bank, and is willing to assist a co- ordinator in getting the program resurrected in Port Perry. She said the Block Parent pro- gram in Port Perry needs an over- all co-ordinator. A fair amount of work will be involved initially to get things running again. Mrs. Banting pointed out that the Safe Arrival program at local schools is not the same as Block Parents, although those who are Block Parents often work as vol- unteers for the Safe Arrival phone program at the schools. If you have some organization skills and some free times to de- vote to the Block Program, give Mrs. Banting a call at 985-3225. Craft 239 QUEEN ST.
